Dilshan was an integral cog of Royal Challengers Bangalore outfit from 2011-13, forming a potent opening partnership with Chris Gayle. With an unorthodox technique, he invented the 'Dilscoop', unleashing it with tremendous success in the 2009 World T20.

One of the select few players to have scored over 10,000 ODI runs, Dilshan had made opening the batting seem like a cakewalk. He also became one among the few to register a century in all formats of the game when he scored an unbeaten 104* from 54 balls against Australia in Kandy in 2011.

Despite his heroics for Sri Lanka and RCB, he has been out of favour with the IPL franchises since 2013, when he last featured.
